Heyho,
I just dropped in because I've recently had some problems with some programs...
To be more precise,
its a 3d-surface-generator, "k3dsurf" ( k3dsurf.sourceforge.net ) , is someone willing to try it, plz??
for me it works best with the win2000-config. but not always... after a restart I sometimes get graphical problems, and it seems I am missing some fonts, can someone confirm that??

other things are
Inkscape and Synfig ,two drawing-progs..
they work best in win2000-mode as well.
in XP-mode I get errors causing a crash. For example just try a right-click in Inkscape..
Its a Gtk+ error, thats all I can say. Might there be a solution?? Or what is this telling me, since I'm not a programer..
Btw. whats you guys favourite drawing-program (2d-, 3d, CAD-)??

Running great here aside from perhaps a regression (already in the previous build actually) with Apophysis 2 which doesn't display rendered images on its main screen again, a big hourglass remaining indefinitely instead.

Bug-Report: KernelEx 4.5 RC2 *CRASHES* Thinkpad 760XD laptop!

I just tried out the new KernelEx 4.5 RC2. While on my normal PC it installed flawlessly, any attempts of installing it on my IBM Thinkpad 760XD laptop (Pentium MMX 166MHz, 106MB RAM, 2GB HDD) result in such a deep crash that I can only uninstall it in safe mode of Windows 98SE.

When I attempt to install it on the 760XD, everything behaves normal until I reboot Windows. When Windoze starts and I leave the login screen, an error requester pops up, telling that EXPLORER caused a stack error. When I close it, Windows simply locks up with only the empty desktop background and mouse pointer visible.

The error message says (handtyped from my digicam photo, I hope without typos):

When I restart Windows, the boot process turns very slow and cooks pea soup on the harddisk (disk treashing). Once Windows starts, it locks up the same way again. I can only get back to normal by booting into safe mode (which also seems to take unusually long) and uninstalling KernelEx. I also tried to reinstall with all KernelEx settings set to default, but it doesn't help. The previous KernelEx 4.5 RC1 ran fine on the 760XD without problem and still installs well (after manually uninstalling RC2).

On my normal PC RC2 works well. (But it still displays in Firefox 3.6.9 a "|" instead of "..." which looks ugly. This is likely a simple unicode translation flaw - please fix this.)

Thanks for the new KEX!!
No new problems, and less old ones..
While Flash 10.1 works well now (the sound-problem is gone),
I still get the playlist-"error" in vlc 1.1.2 (radiostations (shoutcast.com) are placed at the end of vlcs playlist)...(I just thought that this might be a problem of the tray-icon als well, but I didnt try this..)

BUT WITH vlc 1.1.4 THERE IS NO PROBLEM!!! <--- if you cant open files sometimes, go to vlcs options and deactivate the systray-icon!!! It seems to not shut down properly..

RC3 is not okay for me. When Lingoes is running, there is invalid page fault in KERNELEX.DLL whenever I do anything related to Explorer (e.g. move my mouse pointer over the Taskbar, press Windows+R to call the Run window, etc). Downgraded to RC1 solved the problem. Hope this can be fixed in next RC

Heyho,
I just wanted to say that assigning media-files in vlc 1.1.4 via the vlc-options doesn't work. But it works with the explorer dialog.. (like if no EXE is assigned to a file and you double-click it..or go to the "folderoptions" and assign vlc there) Btw. I noticed some new files in the "file-type" dialog of the "folderoptions". Those are obviously put there by vlc, but are not working...for me.
Can someone confirm this??

Hi,
There must be a bug in latest version. First I noticed Flashget from my autostart folder (98SE) didn't start properly and executed its own bug report window.
Then explorer.exe (4.72.3612.1700) and other apps (K-meleon, Groupwise) caused DrWatson to appear.

2. Failed to get Dr Watson crash log because the dumping process freezed

3. I have found a workaround to the "invalid page fault" problem: Keep closing the invalid page fault windows repeatedly until Explorer finally crashs and restarts. Then the Explorer runs normally with Lingoes

4. The "invalid page fault" problem also occurred when I tried to open some folders with Explorer (Lingoes was not running at that time)

First I thought it was caused by RP9 but after uninstalling it, things did not change... then I uninstalled KEX and everything was normal, after installing RP9 things remained OK aswell.

So far other than that, I have not had problems with KEX.

If needed I can provide some screenshots of the problem aswell.

EDIT: I installed KEX again and I started getting errors on WMIEXE, if I moved the mouse over something I got an error... I could navigate between folders ando pen programs, after clicking close on the error windows many times, and I could uninstall KEX then.

After reboot, shortcuts became ineffective and quicklaunch was gone. I had it before, and fix was to reinstall KEX and uninstall it, and when I reinstalled I still got the error. I did an install/uninstall with an older version and shortcuts became working again, and I had to manually enable quicklaunch...

Now I got another problem which prevents me from installing any version of KEX. ERROR: Disable_platform_check:pattern not found

EDIT: I forgot one detial... one install of KEX failed, it gave an error that install failed, and thus I uninstalled it and tried again, at form nothing works.

EDIT: Seems I got KEX'ed KERNEL32.DLL in the system without DLL... I reverted it to KERNEL32.DLL form Win98 setup files, and now KEX install says it cannot open KERNEL32.BAK file, and suggests me to get the DLL from install media, so I copied the DLL to KEX dir in win folder and renamed it to the BAK hoping it works and I get the error I got before.
Kinda makes me think KEX thinks its still installed...... ?

@CyberyogiCoWindler, RLoew, and all others involved, myself included: It just dawned on me we were actively hijacking this thread, so I've decided to remedy this.All relevant posts are now moved and incorporated to this other thread, where they fit best, and will be easier to find, instead of ending-up buried in a ton of KEx posts, as would inevitably happen here.

@Xeno86, and everybody trying to keep to the main subject of the present thread: Sorry for the (now solved) hijack!

If you delete KernelEx startup key in the registry it won't think it is still installed anymore as it won't try to load at all.
